- Perfect Cali Cab. Mineral, smokey meats on the nose. Beautifully lucious on the palate. Full bodied, perfectly balanced. Next time, drink w steak, lamb or veal.

- Full, saturated red-ruby. Dusty black cherry, plum, game, woodsmoke, herbs and a suggestion of leafy cabernet franc on the nose. Thick and lush in the mouth, with the extravagant sweetness of the best '96s. This has good structure and grip, but there plenty of deep fruit to buffer the substantial tannins. This wine and the '97 were both vinified by David Ramey before he moved on to Rudd Estate.
